Bill overview
Assembly Bill 276 modifies the process for background checks for individuals working in community care facilities, such as foster family homes, to ensure the safety of children. It allows these facilities to approve caregivers for children before completing a check of out-of-state child abuse and neglect registries, provided specific conditions are met, including submitting a request and ensuring the applicant has passed other background checks. The bill also requires immediate removal of an applicant if negative information is discovered during the out-of-state registry check.
